Yes 5 working days a weeks see's my Gerber Clutch (same color) as edc.  It's most
important function is the flathead which is used to unlock and lock the pins on the
3 public doors to the store.  Sometimes I'll whip out the nail file to trim and even
things up when time permits.

I bought a clutch once for my sister in law, she wanted some small pocketable pliers for adjusting piercings.

I've not seen the Clutch for sale in a while Gareth. I did see it in Cotswold's last Christmas with a Tempo gift pack, wish I had picked one up.  :ahhh

Well my Clutch (black) landed today and I have to say my first impressions are that I rather like it. :)  Overall it might not be good enough to replace my Squirt but it does have some good things going for it.   Pics to follow when I remember where I put my camera. :think:

Careful Gareth,they're a bit addictive,I have three not counting those given away,or those being passed arround!I agree they're not as good as a Squirt,but then they're about half the price too!

I've got about a dozen different 'keyring' sized MT's and SAKs now. :-[  The Clutch is just that bit bigger than the Squirt, which is no bad thing, though the finish is notably lower IMO.

Have an old battered vise i keep in my trouser pocket while at work.
And two, yes two bear grylls minitools, one i carry a lot and the other is a spare.
I think the bear mini tool is a cracking tool, it is basically a clutch that has had the useless (to me) file replaced with a very good serrated blade that i do use all the time.

Also both blades are almost the same size as the blades on the suspension despite the tool being half the size.

I almost never bought this tool because of the bear grylls endorsement (more of a ray mears man myself).
But i am so glad i did, if only leatherman made a juice with the the same tool selection .
If i could replace the cork screw with a serated blade on my juice C2 it would be the perfect tool.
My trouble is i never show initiative, but that's only because no one has told me to.
